Chapter 4
It was mostly because of her “friendship” with Ray, that her and Dalton eventually started their “relationship”.
Ray enjoyed receiving sensual pictures from Jen in dazzling underwear. Whether it was by accident or with intend: Dalton saw some of the pictures……and the way he looked at her changed both their worlds upside down.
Ann and Cash invited her and Hank to dinner on Cash’s birthday, obviously the two boys joined them. They went to a very famous Restaurant: Rapa Viola. It is a Italian restaurant, the owner is the chef and he prepares all the specials, if they had on a given evening.
It looked over one of the more renowned and exclusive suburbs in town. The restaurant has dim lit lights, their flowered serviettes, folded in the shape of cute chef hats and the tables ornamented with white candles in old wine bottles.
There is a deli in the restaurant and they served their own speciality of Italian meats like: genoa salami’s, capicola, prosciutto de Parma and other meats and cheeses; gorgonzola, pecorino Toscana and provolone and pickled vegetables and olives. It’s absolutely divine.
It is summer and the windows to the outside is open……there is a light breeze and the soft smell of jasmine is coming through the windows. Jennifer loved that smell…. sweet, soft….it makes her think of sandy beaches and cocktails at sunset and moonlit nights.
Jennifer looked striking….she is wearing a black dress. It has a v-cut front with a low back and thin straps. It is tight up to her waistline, slowly flowing wider into a long dress that just covered her anklets, complimenting it with semi-high heal sandals with thin straps, covered with crystals, that looked like diamante.
Her hair is blow-waved straight and brushed slightly back. Her make-up is a soft purple-black glow.
As usually nowadays all of them are discussing the pros and cons of their cell phones. Who’s phone is the best, the smallest or the biggest. Dalton asked her if he could have a look at her phone. She told him, with a laugh and a twinkle in her eyes: “You are more than welcome, but please don’t look at my pictures. They are very private.” He asked why, but she just laughed and told him: “Don’t you dare.”
Everyone was talking, laughing and having their drinks, so no one took notice of what she and Dalton was discussing. Deep in her heart, Jen knew that she kind of hoped that he would look at her pictures.
When she looked at him, her heart missed a beat. The way he looked at her……. Was it, amazement, curiosity, desire?
He started typing on her phone and said: “I am giving you my number, just in case you need to talk to someone.” Jen just stared at him thinking: “Gosh, he is sexy, doesn’t matter his age.” All she manages to say is: “uhm, ok.”
He gives her that sexy smile of his. He didn’t shave and he had a slight beard. His smile went into his eyes. His hands perfectly shaped. Wearing a leather strap around his wrist, like teenagers like to do nowadays.
He sits back, but under the table, she could feel his leg touching hers. She felt this warm feeling over her body, turning into goose pumps. She pushed her leg closer to his, locking her foot behind his….
Chapter five
He was the trouble she wanted, the attention, the love, affection and someone to spend time with……a man to love her. Dalton was all of that to her and more. She fell deeply in love with him. She thinks; maybe at some stage he loved her as well. The age difference between them never created a problem in the relationship and affair, that was starting to bloom between them.
Jennifer and Winston became very good friends, though she was friends, with his mom and dad. Their friendship grew into a very exceptional, considerate and prized relationship. Their friendship was very significant to them and they never even considered having a personal affair themselves. Their friendship meant a whole lot to them……

November 16, 2015 - 13:17 Thank you, happy that you enjoy it. I was thinking: the whole of these first parts are about who the character's are, to understand them and for the reader to get to know Jennifer, to understand her, the reasons for her betrayal. (It's like it should have been the first chapter if it was a book.) Do you think I should say something in the description about that or not? I am scared people will get bored.Velantra

November 16, 2015 - 13:42 What I have experienced here is that long posts are not cry popular people read and like if it is within 1000 words. If you divide the story in parts some folks tend to read the third part before the first part etc ( this happened with me) I have just started writing and can add only this much hope this will help you to decide
